Our Only Dream Poem by Alex Fischer

Our Only Dream

How long has it been since I’ve seen
Some kind of love that isn’t obscene?
Who cares for the simple in life?
Let me show you the dates and the files

Well, it’s been too long since I’ve seen
A kind of love that isn’t obscene
What happened to those simple things?
That used to be our only dream

It’s been way too long since I’ve seen
A kind of love that has yet to be clean
What happened to those simple things?
That used to be our only dream

Why does this past escape you?
Has your new life gone to your head?
Where are the dates and the files?

Because it’s been too long since I’ve seen
A real love that isn’t obscene
What ever happened to all those little simple things?
That used to be our one and only dream
